think you could make your own?
I was thinking of making something that simply rotated a 5gal bucket of sand like a rock tumbler, would that work or take 2 weeks like rocks
I want something bigger than that I guess. Maybe I'll have to go buy or build a sandblast cabinet
Yes, you could make your own, and pretty easily at that.
Mine is a lapiary polisher. It is just a barrel that sits on 2 axles. One of the axles is powered by an electric motor. DEAD simple.
Just be sure that the barrel you use hs a lid that screws on tight.
The speed of polishing will be slower then a vibrator, but not 2 weeks slower. Also, different media will cut/polish caster then others.
